Wood Works Ebay cnc router review

[JAZZCNC]

thought id get a quick job in before the new parts arrive.

turns out the machine is just dangerous, the cable to the steppers is not sufficient and gets warm. the cable is only rated for 3amps, also see the below -

Andy, I'm sorry to see you are having these troubles and my only advice is to send it back under your statutory rights if possible. The machine is clearly unsafe so he hasn't got a leg to stand on.

I would also like to salute and thank you for standing up and showing how poorly built and dangerous these machines really are.

Being a machine builder I am in a very awkward position when it comes to pulling another builder's machine down because to others it can and does appear like I'm just saying it for my own gains, however in cases like these machines I just can't sit back and say nothing. So when someone like yourself has laid out good money and is good enough to stand up publicly to show others then it should be recognized and appluaded.

Now, if you do manage to return it then get in touch with me and I will sort you out with a proper machine at a discounted rate as a real thank you.

the steppers are 86HS115-4208 - which could draw up to 6 amps, depending on how they are wired.

the cable used is LAPP u242 - so 4x 0.25mm cables - this appears to have a rating of about 3-4 amps.

which probably explains why the cable is getting warm after 35mins of use.
